# 10 – Love Ballad

We open up our top 10 Tove Lo songs list with the fabulous song entitled “Love Ballad.” This was the first single released by Tove Lo in which she was the featured artist. The song would eventually be released on the album Queen of the Clouds. However, it was first released just as a single in 2012. The song did not chart but it did serve as notice that Tove Lo was ready to have some pretty big hit singles as an artist herself instead of just writing songs for others.

# 9 – Scars

Continuing with our top 10 Tove Lo songs list we take a listen to the great motion picture soundtrack song entitled “Scars.” The song was released on the soundtrack album to the film The Divergent Series: Allegiant. This is one of those big sounding synth ballads with striking strings that fuel a song based on a very powerful theme that Tove Lo just knocks out of the universe.

# 8 – Really Don’t Like U

In the number eight spot on our top 10 Tove Lo songs list we present the outstanding song “Really Don’t Like U.” This great track featured one of our favorite 21st-century artists in Kylie Minogue.

# 6 – Heroes (We Could Be)

Landing in the number six spot on our top 10 Tove Lo songs list we present the raging song “Heroes.” It’s interesting that they gave David Bowie and Brian Eno credit on this song because it’s an entirely different song except for the title “Heroes,” with the tagline “We Could Be.” Supposably they were worried about getting sued. I guess no one makes money anymore on songs so giving David Bowie and Brian Eno writing credit made more sense because why get sued on a song you’re probably not going to make any money on.

The song was released on the album entitled Forever which was released by DJ Alesso. The album was released in 2014. It was the first single released from the album. The song was a hit on Sweden’s Sverigetopplistan Music Charts peaking at number five. The song also was a hit on the US Billboard Hot 100 Charts reaching all the way up to number thirty one.
